Sharp Thinkers is a series of events in Amsterdam and Eindhoven that stimulate and challenge. The combination of inspiring speakers from the world of science, journalism, philosophy, literature and music provokes curiosity and means Sharp Thinkers is more than a pleasant surprise for many listeners. In this event Germaine Greer, one of the most important and controversial thinkers (and Britten Sinfonia Trustee), discusses biodiversity and the environment. Britten Sinfonia will perform music with nature as its theme alongside Germaine's talk.
